This study was conducted in a survey research type. The population was 190 undergraduate students, but the purposive sampling technique resulted in a total of respondents of 60 students. TPACK competence scale was used for data collection. The findings indicated that the student's perception of their lecturers' TPACK competence was in an excellence category, as seen from overall domains' scores of 89.73.
